Four-year-old Zhang Weiyuan of China has a condition called pentalogy of Cantrell in which the heart protrudes from the body. Zhang is shown here at Shengjing Hospital in Shenyang, in northeast China's Liaoning province Nov. 21. Doctors usually try surgery to correct the exceedingly rare condition, which leaves the heart vulnerable to injury if untreated.(Li Shuangqi/AP Photo)

Pentalogy of Cantrell is a rare syndrome that causes defects involving the diaphragm, abdominal wall, pericardium, heart and lower sternum. The syndrome has five characteristic findings: Omphalocele; Anterior diaphragmatic hernia; Sternal cleft; Ectopia cordis; Intracardiac defect: either a ventricular septal defect or a diverticulum of the left ventricle.

As in thils link on Prevent diabetes problems: Keep your heart and blood vessels healthy. But it will be concerned and simplified for children:

In that day of world diabetes day;i will try to summarize my children with diabetic heart syndrome and diabetic cardiomyopathy from my thesis and my case reports:

*I will not forget the child with HOCM and type 1 DM

*Also, the adolescent girl with start of complications on CV system in my thesis.

*I will not forget the first child NE3MA with diabetic coma I had managed with my seniors while I was a houseofficer. she was in deep coma and almost dead. The question in this problem was the level of hypoglycemic coma that will affect her conscioussness level and brain maturation. but against all theories she regained her sensorium and intelligence with no sequele but with our surprise....!

obesity and hypertensionOct. 10, 2008 (New York) -- The rate of premature heart disease among obese teens is set to triple, and the increasing prevalence of high blood pressure in children is a major culprit, experts warned at a news conference sponsored by the American Society of Hypertension.

Metabolic syndrome (a group of conditions including a large waist size, high blood pressure, high blood glucose, and high levels of fats in the blood) makes a person more likely to get cardiovascular disease (disease of the heart and blood vessels).

Doctors would like to know more about what happens in the body when a person gets metabolic syndrome. This would help them find the condition sooner and come up with better ways of treating people.

Along the past decade, emerging data cumulated to for a new broken heart syndrome. It is called TAKUTSUBO SYNDROME after a Japanese name. I took this note on my lecture upon the ISCU meeting in Egypt, 2006 as a differential diagnosis of a young 19 yrs. old woman with possible acute MI after a stressful scenario.
